copy and paste program? (make sure its not the shortcut) then open new winrar

Actually, cracking a winrar password might turn into a real nightmare, specially if you have used some of lastest versions (like not more than 1 year old).
The problem is that, the brute force attack will work at most at 7 to 10 passes a second (compared to the last optimized zip cracking which reaches about 20K passwords a second) might take a very .. very .. long while ...

why not just uninstall it then reinstall it, you will still have the files on your computer?

What a bullshit... the cracker i use works way faster then that. it cracks every 6 character combination with capitals and /@#! shit in it within 24 hours it only gets hard after the 6 characters because there are way to many combinations but you can use word lists and stuff like that it really works good.

Thank you for the respect you showed to my post.

I am really talking about the last version and the rar 3.X method, which is way stronger than the usual zip one.

Here is a file that contains a simple text file, and shouldn't be hard to crack, i just made it, please take your time and test your "cracker" on it, i'll be very happy if you can break thru my 6 characters password.

PLEASE RENAME THE FILE TO ".RAR" as i couldn't upload a rar file, i renamed it ".zip".

Oh and jotti it please while you are at that.

The point of all this ? if you want to have an easy and yet strong protection for some files, just use winrar and a good password, as cracking a winrar is always possible but very very long.
